UNISON Conference

A number of events you should know about for next weeks UNISON Conference.

 

The Tuesday night united left social will be held in remberence of Malcolm Campbell - Malc helped me organise the social and was vocal for the last few years on the need for the left to host socials and make an impact at conference - conference is what most members of the union outside london will remember Malcolm for  - so it is fitting that we hold it in his honour.

Conference Social Tuesday night 9.30-2am All are welcome tickets are £5 - Joogleberry bar with Live Band Robb Johnson and the Irregulars followed by Geoff Martin and the radio clash sound system - as an extra bonus - Geoff might bring his guitar and sing a few of Malcs favourite songs!

 

There are a couple of things on the tuesday before the social that you should also go to:
